Chapter 297: Recording Exposed
After the two paternity tests were exposed, the entire incident had already stirred up a massive uproar online.
And following Sheng Yu's live-streamed clarification, public opinion fermented repeatedly, and the internet was flooded with questions regarding Sheng Hongyao's purpose in doing this.
But besides Sheng Hongyao being reviled, there was one other person who was being insulted with the most vicious words.
——My father is actually my brother, my grandfather is actually my grandfather, so may I ask who I am?
——Not the one above, stop memeing, this child is Sheng Hongyao's, doesn't he know? Even if he doesn't know, what about Ning Huaiqing?
——What kind of society is this, still a matrilineal clan? Knowing only the mother and not the father?
——Is Ning Huaiqing trying to make Sheng Yu take the fall?
Ning Huaiqing hadn't seen Sheng Yu for several days; seeing his live stream, she couldn't help but click in. No matter what he said, she couldn't hear it clearly, only looking at his handsome, cold face.
When the live stream ended, Sheng Yu left, and the server crashed, she anxiously clicked on Weibo, only to see the overwhelming insults directed at her.
Cursing her for actually getting together with the father of the man she liked.
Cursing her for being shameless, actually claiming the child was Sheng Yu's.
Cursing her, saying it's no wonder she couldn't get Sheng Yu's affection, because Sheng Yu had long ago seen through her as a disgusting woman...
"It's not like that..."
Ning Huaiqing looked at those comments one by one, like sharp blades cutting into her flesh; her eyes were instantly blurred by tears.
She was not shameless, and she had no intention of making Sheng Yu take the fall.
From the very beginning, she believed the child was Sheng Yu's, which was why she secretly gave birth and had been cherishing it all along.
That's what people on the internet thought, but what about Sheng Yu?
What would he think?
Does Sheng Yu think the same way?
Ning Huaiqing's fingertips couldn't stop trembling. She had to go find Sheng Yu. Since he already knew, knew that Youyou was Sheng Hongyao's child, it meant that she was Sheng Hongyao's woman; she had nothing left to hide.
She wanted to tell Sheng Yu that she wasn't that kind of person, that she had never thought of harming him.
She looked back at the upstairs; Sheng Hongyao hadn't come out of the study yet. She handed Youyou to the nanny, "I'm going out for a moment."
"Miss Ning!" The nanny grabbed her, saying with a grave expression, "It's very chaotic outside right now, you going out at a time like this..."
The place they were currently living in had long been discovered. Once outside the villa area, it was full of media reporters. For Ning Huaiqing to go out at this time was undoubtedly walking into the line of fire; she would definitely be drowned by the spit of that group of reporters.
The moment Ning Huaiqing thought of Sheng Yu's misunderstanding of her, her heart felt like it was being sliced by a knife. She shook her head, "I will be careful."
However, just as she arrived at the garage to drive, someone suddenly pulled open her car door. Sheng Hongyao's Bodyguard held the door with one hand and made a gesture of invitation with the other.
"Miss Ning, Mr. Sheng says you cannot leave right now."
Ning Huaiqing's breath hitched.
In the brightly lit study, Sheng Hongyao fiercely slapped Ning Huaiqing across the face!
"Where do you think you're going!"
Ning Huaiqing was slapped to the ground by him, the corner of her mouth split, and blood seeped out.
She gritted her teeth and struggled to sit up, but was struck on the arm by Sheng Hongyao's cane. She cried out in pain and lost her support, collapsing onto the floor.
"You first make clear whose woman you are!"
Sheng Hongyao used his cane to lift her chin, looking at her face that had no color but was still pitiful, "Thinking that since the matter has been exposed, you can go to Sheng Yu's side without any scruples?"
He made a gesture, and the assistant immediately took a tablet and knelt in front of Ning Huaiqing, displaying those abusive comments from the internet to her one by one.
"Do you think Sheng Yu will believe that you didn't know anything?"
Ning Huaiqing's bloodshot eyes welled up with tears. Her gaze gradually shifted away, looking at the time displayed on the tablet, and she suddenly let out a laugh.
Her voice was slow, from a low chuckle to streaming tears, her smile carrying a hint of a "if I go down, I'm taking you with me" attitude.
The air pressure in the study, which had been cold to the extreme, suddenly became somewhat eerie.
She stared at Sheng Hongyao with blood-red eyes, saying like a madwoman: "He will believe me, A Yu will believe me."
Sheng Hongyao's jaw tightened, his eyes looking sharply down at Ning Huaiqing, "What did you do?"
Ning Huaiqing closed her eyes, and even when Sheng Hongyao used the bottom of his cane to pry open her mouth, she refused to say a word despite her mouth being full of blood.
Until the assistant's expression suddenly changed drastically, "Mr. Sheng, a recording has suddenly appeared online!"
Chairman's Office of the Sheng Group.
The press conference was held within the Sheng Group. After the live stream ended, Sheng Yu returned to the office.
Qiao Mai had been secretly sent into the building and was currently treating the wounds on Sheng Yu's waist, abdomen, and legs.
"You're already injured, couldn't you have let Situ and the others hold the press conference?" Qiao Mai couldn't help but nag.
Yuan Fengye and Qi Jing had also arrived, and they were shocked to see the wounds on his body.
Sheng Yu only said indifferently: "It was worth it."
"What was worth it? Yu Ge, you said you were injured, and it was worth it?" Yuan Fengye was speechless; he had been saying that ever since Zhu Yuan left, Yu Ge's train of thought had become increasingly strange.
Sheng Yu had nothing to say to someone who had just crossed the threshold of love and didn't know they were in love. He only glanced at Yuan Fengye, then looked at Qi Jing.
Sure enough, the widower understood him best.
Qi Jing nodded and asked meaningfully: "Did you see her?"
"Yes." Sheng Yu didn't feel that the wounds on his body were painful at all. Thinking of holding Yuanyuan's hand today and even hugging her, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly.
Yuan Fengye was stunned, "See who?"
Sheng Yu couldn't be bothered to waste words with him. Just as he shot a roll of the eyes over, Yuan Fengye suddenly gasped, "Could it be Zhu..."
Just then, Situ reported the trend of public opinion after the live stream to Sheng Yu.
Looking at those analytical posts and comments, there was no expression on Sheng Yu's face.
"The spearhead is already pointed at Sheng Hongyao. Now is the time for us to bring out the evidence to prove Sheng Hongyao's conspiracy: he wants to use Youyou to become your heir so that he can sit back and enjoy the benefits of the Sheng Group."
Sheng Yu put on his shirt and buttoned it, nodding to signal Situ to go ahead, "That is not enough; I want Sheng Hongyao's scandals to be known by everyone."
Back then, Sheng Hongyao announced the truth about his mother's death in front of the media; he even exploited his wife who had been deceased for over a decade. For such scum, the current public opinion effect is far from enough!
"What is this?" Yuan Fengye suddenly spoke, and immediately after, he tapped on an audio file in a chat app.
Qi Ce heard his confusion and turned to take a look; it was actually an audio file sent to him by Ning Huaiqing.
Yuan Fengye tapped the play button.
A deep, mellow voice and a slightly hoarse yet gentle voice came out from the phone.
The expressions of the few people changed slightly.
These are the voices of Sheng Hongyao and Ning Huaiqing!
And listening to the rustling background noise, this audio clip must have been recorded secretly.
Zhu Yuan looked at him, her eyes calm and without a single ripple.
